Help our rescued Florida black bear settle in with “housewarming gifts”! Enrichment items like scent balls, “tipsy toys” and feed dispensers will help keep her stimulated and encourage the expression of natural behaviors. Best of all, you’ll be able to see your gift in action when the habitat opens early next year. We are bear-y grateful for your generosity!

When filled with spices, food and other exciting items, “scent balls” can provide hours of fun! Photo by Matt Bennett/Houston Zoo.

ABOUT #GIVINGZOODAY

#GivingZOOday, in partnership with #GivingTuesday, celebrates the impact zoos and aquariums have on their communities by engaging visitors to be stewards of the environment and saving species from extinction. It’s also about how these institutions give back by mentoring their staff and volunteers to support a wide range of causes.

REFUND POLICY

No refunds will be issued once a ticket is purchased.

No refunds or rain checks will be issued due to inclement weather. The Zoo is an outdoor facility with little indoor space. Please plan your trip to the Zoo accordingly based upon the anticipated weather conditions for that day.

No refunds will be issued to anyone removed from the Zoo for failure to follow the Rules of the Wild.
